Kadner: Lipinski bill aims to stop cheating by foreign companies

Mattress springs illegally shipped into the United States by foreign companies are costing this country $50 million a year in anti-dumping duties, according to U.S. Rep. Dan Lipinski (D-3rd).

Lipinski is proposing legislation to toughen U.S. customs laws, which he contends are being violated on a daily basis by foreign importers.

As I’ve reported in the past, Lipinski has been on a mission for several years to get our government to buy more American-made products when it purchases stuff with our tax money through federal contracts.
